Lovin the name,
There's a bloke on TV (I think he's actually a weatherman) in Norn Iron called Barra

Our local weatherman is Owain



If a storm was named after him it would be a puff of lukewarm air

Steptoe is spot on there, BBC1 N-Irelands weatherman is Barra Best, he is gonna come in for some stick , if this storm turns out to be as bad as they say it will be. just because of his name, well we have to blame somebody.
